Nick_317 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I love that Taylor is releasing a brand new album but all the OLHs can think of and talk about is Lover Staying on your minds 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campelo Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 It's crazy to think there is hype in this while she has been constantly releasing music since Lover, she is very powerful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOMH Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 1 hour ago, wehavetostan said: I feel like it’s way too early to call it. A good example is Ariana. She posted a tweet about being excited to release her album (Positions) 2 weeks before the release date and received 1.2 million likes. The album only sold 174,000 in its first week. Of course Taylor will sell more than that but likes alone definitely won’t equate to 1 million sales. She’d have to promote A LOT I think it hinges on how explosive the lead is. If the estimates from jerrysversion are anything to go by, she's easily outdoing Lover's debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folklore89sm Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Imagine if this is her true magnum opus. As much as I adored folklore, I finished the album on first listen thinking it sounded like a transitional album. Evermore (an album I loved too) was more of the same. There’s also supposedly a case to be made that the folkmore records aren’t completely authentic because there was so much influence from her collaborators and idols. but what if this is her true career highlight. What im hoping for is less love songs or relationship songs, and more introspective and groundbreaking themes. What can she do with 13 songs that will top everything she’s offered since 2020?

I agree it might be another signature record album. I do think Fearless, 1989 and Midnights have 13 songs for a reason. I hope it will be another legendary album because the timing couldn't be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She needs to throw a curveball with the lyrics, which, given the album description, it's looking like she will. The concept already sounds like her best to date, which is insane to think about considering how profound Folklore's was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folklore89sm Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 An album of just 13 songs is a really bold move in the streaming era. Hopefully it’s still got a long run time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feetree Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Somebody said that one side of the vinyl is 23 mins and there are 2 sides so one vinyl is 46 mins long so that means the album is max 46 mins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like it’ll def be under 50 mins. Which is another reason I think the album will be pop as the tracks are typically shorter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
